Tour of Sri Lanka
-
Hard to say what these conditions will do for the BCs batting second. Rain is predicted.
-
Excellent catch Guppy. Southee with the good cross seamer and Mendis gone.
Mendis with a great innings.
-
Brilliant over from Southee, 5 singles and a wicket.
136-3 after 17.
-
Southee 2-20 off his 4. Great bowling.
Rance bowling the last over and after going for 6, bowled a brilliant full length ball and we get a run out.
-
Ouch, consecutive 6s.
-
22 runs from the final over. Udana comes in and hits 15 runs off 3 balls.
-
Munro gone 1st ball from a peach from Slinga
-
What an over from Slinga. Beat the bat 3 times not including the Yorker that got Munro.
1-1 after 1
-
CdG and Taylor pushing us a long. Taylor given a life after a bunny is dropped near the boundary.
-
Drama drama drama.
CdG misses a Slinga full one by a mile and is bowled.
Taylor is out LBW.
The rain starts pouring down. We are two runs ahead on DL.
-
19th over and Slinga bowls 4 wides to start. He’s bowled brilliantly this innings.
-
Mitchell a 6 off a Slinga slower ball.
We only need 3 off 7 now.
-
Mitch & Mitchell close it out with a couple of balls to play.
A very good contest that ebbed and flowed for both sides.

Just checking the scorecard on this one. Santner not out 10 (2) to finish the game is a very BMac batting effort.
Guptill listed under the Did Not Bat's suggests an injury in the field?
Guptill had what looked like a muscle strain very early on, left the field while fielding and never returned.

Santner was the beneficiary of the catch becomes a 6 collision. I haven't seen the game so will watch the highlights.
Taylor didn't play due to injury.

Yes.
Rossco didn't play because of injury. Ferguson has already gone home because of injury. And Tom Bruce injured his leg while batting.
If none of these is fit to play the next game, we'll only have 10 players and 2 metre Peter might be pulling on the pads - though I'd imagine NZ Cricket is forking out an airfare for someone.
-
We’ve got AB midfielders infiltrating the Blackcaps.
I fell asleep during the CdG and Bruce partnership. Southee bowled excellent again and we were better at putting pressure on.
Rance bowling at the death though didn’t work again.
Top order struggled again and the middle order saved us.
